Description
True to its title, the commentary weaves Indian scriptural authority together with the practical instructions of the Tibetan mind training (blo sbyong) lineages.
Minyak Kunzang Sönam works through all thirty-seven verses, from the preliminary reflections on the precious human birth, impermanence, the spiritual friend and refuge, to the cultivation of relative and ultimate bodhicitta. Along the way he gives extended attention to exchanging self and other and to transforming adversity into the path. He then turns to the six perfections and the bodhisattva’s conduct, closing with the dedication of merit.
An English translation by Heidi Köppl was published as Uniting Wisdom and Compassion: Illuminating the Thirty-Seven Practices of a Bodhisattva (Wisdom Publications, 2004).
